"Saving Our Schools exposes the ugly side of President George Bush's "No Child Left Behind" mandate, which has threatened to close more than 6,000 public schools, to the detriment of dedicated teachers and disadvantaged children alike. Revealing how NCLB forces schools with strictly limited resources to teach its children test-taking skills in a desperate bid to pass high-stakes standardized testing, and how the government blacklists successful professors, institutions, and methods that balk the NCLB party line, and much more, Saving Our Schools warns of an immediate threat to the integrity of public education and urges the reader to take action. An eye-opening social commentary, of keen importance in determining the nation's future. -Midwest Book Review

An inspiring new vision for America's public schools from one of the nation's top educators American fourth graders score twelfth in the world in math skills, after Latvia and Hungary. Our eighth graders are fifteenth, below Malaysia and Slovakia. And by the time they're fifteen years old, our students have slipped off the map—to twenty-fourth place internationally. If these stats don't make you angry or ashamed or plain sad, then at the very least they should make you afraid. If matters don't change soon, tens of millions of our sons and daughters will grow up unable to function—let alone compete—in a global economy. And the impact of that on all of us will be devastating. All is not lost, though, says Rudy Crew, who has headed some of the largest and most daunting school systems in America. Not by any means. Only Connect is a call for not just parents but the entire nation to reconceive our relationship with public education. If we're to survive, we must place our schools at the center of our communities and partner with them to produce children with the full set of the tools they'll need—personal, civic, and occupational as well as academic—to face the economic challenges that lie ahead. Much like Thomas Friedman in The World Is Flat, Crew shows us the reality of our schools in a new century, and what we each must do to create the next generation of mature and conscious contributors to society. From parents who demand only the best from their children and their schools, through our teachers and administrators, all the way to Washington, D.C., everyone has a role in restoring American education and America's competitive edge.

AMERICA 2000: An Education Strategy, was established by past President Bush & was endorsed by the Governors of all of the states. It has since been adopted by the Department of Education. The Strategy establishes goals which must be accomplished, if we are to regain our standing in education, skills, literacy & morality. It will produce a workforce which will be second to none. However, ways & means to accomplish the goals are sketchy at best. This book has been written with one purpose in mind, & that is to define our education problems in detail & to recommend changes which are necessary in order to insure that the goals will be accomplished. We are very far behind in education. For example, when our "top" students are compared to "top" students in mathematics & science from fourteen other countries, our students rank third from the bottom in both subjects. Countries which some consider "backward" such as Korea, Taiwan & Hungary were the top three. This tells us that drastic changes are necessary. This book provides a plan which will reverse this situation, if the recommendations are followed. Everyone who has an interest in improving our schools should read this book.
